Chapter 729 Chapter 729 "Yeah, it's a security guard from your apartment complex. But I think there's more to it," Damon replied.

A security guard? Nyla frowned, trying to recall any interactions, but she couldn't remember ever talking to the security guards at her complex. Besides, a guard wouldn't say things like "Welcback" to her.

Noticing her frown, Damon said calmly, "Don't worry about it. I'll handle it. For now, I'll have the driver take Buddy to and from school, and you can commute with me. That way, I can ensure your safety." Thinking about the messages from last night, Nyla felt that chill creep up her spine again. She nodded. " Okay, I'll listen to you." After finishing breakfast, the driver took them to the office. On the way, Damon asked if they needed to keep their relationship a secret.

Nyla thought for a moment and replied, "No need. It's not something we can hide for long anyway, so let's just go with the flow." A spark lit up in Damon's eyes as he answered, “Alright." When the car stopped in the basement, they both got out. It was close to work hours, and they encountered several employees of Prospectus Technology along the way.

Seeing Nyla and Damon arrive together, everyone couldn't help but stare, though no one dared to speak. They all kept their heads down, pretending they hadn't seen anything.

If Damon hadn't ordered employees not to discuss his and Nyla's relationship, the company would have been buzzing with gossip by now.

An eerie silence filled the elevator lobby, despite there being over 20 people present. No one said a word. Damon glanced at Nyla and, seeing her calm expression, felt slightly relieved.

"Cto my office at noon. We'll have lunch together," he said.

Nyla looked a bit surprised. She wanted to decline, but after thinking it over, she nodded. "Okay, but I'm not sure when my experiment will end, so I might be a little late." "It's fine. I have an important meeting today too. I'll wait for you," Damon replied.

The elevator arrived soon after.

When Damon and Nyla stepped inside, they noticed that no one else joined them.

Damon frowned and asked, "Are you not taking the elevator?" The female employee closest to them quickly waved her hand. "No, thank you, Mr. Sumner. It's still early, so we'll wait for the next one." Damon didn't say anything more and pressed the button for the elevator doors to close, Nyla thought for a moment before speaking. "When you told everyone in the Prospectus Technology company group chat that anyone caught discussing our relationship would be fired, I think it scared the 1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 729 employees. That's why no one said a word while we were waiting for the elevator, and no one wanted to ride with us." "Isn't that exactly what I want? I don't want you to becthe subject of gossip," Damon replied. Seeing how forceful he was, Nyla felt a bit helpless. "You can't stop everyone from talking." Damon raised an eyebrow. "I never planned to silence everyone, just the majority." Nyla was about to respond, but the elevator had already reached her floor. She said, "I'll head to work now.

"Alright. Callif you need anything," Damon said.

"Okay," Nyla answered.

Even though Damon had forbidden any discussions about their relationship, newsloom newslok them arriving at work together spread through the company within hours. Unlike before, no one dared to make snide remarks in front of Nyla.

Even Brody started to keep a low profile. After all, if anyone recorded him mocking Nyla and sent it to Damon, he'd be in serious trouble.

Near noon, Nyla called Ruby into her office. "Ruby, what's going on with you today? Why are you making so many mistakes in the lab? You're usually much more careful." 'In the past, Ruby had always been thorough and meticulous when working on experiments, rarely making mistakes.

Today, she had made several errors and seemed distracted, almost m adding the wrong reagent earlier, which could have caused the experimental setup to explode. X
